I just noticed that one of the news communities here discourage the use of least biased/centrist news sources and I saw some people who put that they hate centrists in their bios.

All is that is kind of weird to me and does not make sense, as I thought that all sides should encourage ideas from centrists and least biased sources.

Is there is something that I miss here?

      Hey pickle, I get the feeling that the conversation happening here is about a specific scenario that you aren’t personally involved in. No need to take offense.

        I’m not taking an offense. I see that the discussion is going towards US political landscape but I think the issue is more global. We as the people are slowly losing the ability to compromise and fall into 1-or-0 narration.

      I don’t agree. As I said in other comment I consider myself as a centrist. And my view on the world is a reasonable one (in my opinion). I’m pro same sex marriage, abortion, women rights, same salary for the same work for both genders, public health care and education. But I’m also against unchecked illegal immigration, pretending to be woman so you can win in sports and social handouts. Why does it make me a target for right wingers and not left wingers?

      Yep, conservative pretending to be centrist. See the left actually has empathy for people, which you clearly lack.
